You paid to use the entire track , so use it. The classic line through a turn has you start at the curbing, cross the track to the apex, and then track all the way out to the edge of the track. Know why? It's usually the fastest way through a turn. Don't kill your momentum by limiting how far you track out of the turns. When it's time to brake for a turn, brake like you mean it . If you're jumping on and off the brakes, the suspension will become loaded and then unloaded. This is a great way to spin out. You're physically comfortable behind the wheel, aren't you? And your seat posture allows you reach the entire steering wheel? Oh, and you have a good dead pedal, right? FEATURE: YOUR FIRST TRACK DAY This is the last lap of the session.
